Who Should I Start? De'Von Achane or RJ Harvey

Saturday, December 13, 5:32 PM

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane (ribs) has been one of the best fantasy football running backs of the season, and the Dolphins and his fantasy owners can breathe a sigh of relief since it looks like he'll be available in Week 15's Monday Night Football matchup with the Steelers. Coach Mike McDaniel said Achane is expected to play after the star back was forced to leave last week's win over the Jets. Before leaving, Achane had seven carries for 92 yards and a touchdown while adding a 13-yard reception as well. McDaniel said that Achane could have returned if needed, so it makes sense that he won't miss any further time. Even though he's in a tough matchup against the Steelers, Achane is a must-start, top-tier running back in Week 15. He already has 1,126 rushing yards and 383 receiving yards in his 13 games this year, along with a total of 11 touchdowns. He's the No. 4 RB in RotoBaller's Week 15 rankings, and he should be started in all formats since he is trending in the right direction for Monday.

Denver Broncos running back RJ Harvey will be the workhorse back once again as they face the Green Bay Packers at home in Week 15. Although the Packers rank eighth-best in rushing yards allowed per game, averaging 101.8, Harvey is coming off his best game of the rookie season with 23 touches for 100 total yards and a touchdown. Having six targets in the last game as a frequent checkdown option also pads his floor and shows Harvey's versatility in the offense as a key piece of head coach Sean Payton's game plan. The Packers will be a good test for Harvey as he's rounding out his rookie regular season, alluding to RotoBaller ranking him as the RB19 overall for Week 15.
